I fell in love with exercise at 13 years old and joined the military because of that passion. Currently, I'm lucky if I can get to the gym 3 times a week due to my work, having an infant & breastfeeding. But even when I was going 5 days a week, everything gets squished into my midsection- belly and back, really depressing my hard work & dedication.
Tired of it, I decided it was time for something for me. I researched everything, looking for something non-invasive, had good reviews, that I could do while breastfeeding AND only require one session, because I currently live at least 2 hours from real civilization. I fell upon SculpSure.
Had the procedure done 2 days ago on my abdomen and my bra line.
On my abdomen, it felt like early labor contractions. The heat stung but it wasn't unbearable then the cooling felt good. The nurse spoke to me to distract me, this helped a little. The heat cycles on my back felt like cramps, once again, bearable.
2 days later, I feel like I'm a bit swollen and very sore. Like a hardcore ab workout was done. I did workout the following day without any discomfort. I feel absolutely fine, aside from the tenderness.
Can't wait to see the results and post some progress pictures!

Hi there,
I feel i am on the same situation. I workout five days a week and i am on a healthy diet yet my lower abdomen doesn't seem to go away. I am considering getting sculpsure done. How do you feel now ? Have you noticed improvement? Thank you so much for sharing your story. Lots of love to you and to your loved ones.

Feeling swollen- 6 days post

I just wore the same jeans I wore the day of the treatment & they fit me tighter.
I'm hoping this bloated feeling is part of it.

this happens to me too. Ive had three treatments. It usually takes a week before I feel like there is progress. Ive had 4 compliments, but truthfully, I don't see the difference very much yet. I have 2 more treatments.

I thought this was done in one session. Not that you can't do repeated sessions but it would be very expensive and I was told the amount of improvement diminishes with each session. Thus, one is about as good as you're going to get.

I just had SculpSure on lower abs yesterday. I felt nothing during treatment except occasional coolness, no heat. They turned up the heat quite a bit, and started a new session, but I still only felt mild tingling/heat sensation and NO discomfort. I had some very mild bloating that afternoon but today nothing, no tenderness, no redness or swelling. Not sure what to think. Was told the patient right before me had to turn down the heat as it was too intense. I am massaging and drinking lots of water, hope to see some improvement in the next few weeks but I have had a completely different experience than the posts I have read. Good luck and hope you have great results!

2 weeks...still fluffy
FitButFlabFebruary 26, 2016
I'm starting to get discouraged because I've seen other reviewers post 2 weeks updates with significant results. Yet, here I am 2 weeks post still fat! I'm judging by how my pants fit me which is snugger than before. I've been watching what I eat more so than before, drinking plenty of water & exercising. What's going on?!
Still feel some tenderness too

I am in the same boat as you. On 4 weeks do not see anything really. Had my adominal area done and my flanks on same day, thought by now I would at least feel it in my pants but nothing yet.

I went to my my appointment yesterday and it was exactly 7 weeks. I can not tell anything! Nothing in my clothes or by my eye and My measurements. So I thought maybe I would see something in the photos...Absolutely Nothing even the nurse said she didn't see anything. Considering I had my upper and lower adominal and flanks all on same day I figured something would start giving at 7 weeks! She said so far I am pretty much the only one they have had that was not showing any results. I exercise and watch what I eat have not gained any weight lost a pound or 2. They said to wait till 12 but I am not feeling too excited about it.

Your reaction is quite understandable. Your body is still trying to absorb the cellular trauma. It takes time....maybe 4 weeks or more. Been there....seen it.

About 6 weeks. I could tell in the MIRROR, not the scale so much. I tried to keep walking regularly to keep my systems flowing well to eliminate the toxins. It helped a lot. I think THAT was more responsible for a little weight loss. It is subtle, but permanent.

any results yet?
I just got my treatment yesterday and I'm getting that same bloating feeling.

I will be interested in seeing what your results are in a few more weeks. Please keep us posted.

Thanks for the responses. I still don't notice a thing! My work pants fit me tight and I'm getting really frustrated. I'm not going to say it didn't work for me yet, because I know results can take about 6 weeks, but come on flab! GO AWAY!!
Thanks for sharing on RealSelf. Keep us posted on the healing and your results! We'd love to see the progress pics!
